Day Out with Thomas...

Yesterday we had a day that was ALL about Jamie. (Like there's any that aren't lol!)

We took him to Colne Valley Railway's Day Out With Thomas - and we all had a great day!
We had a ride on Thomas, and on Daisy, and on a miniature railway too, and saw lots of Thomas' other friends as well...went in the signal box, saw the Fat Controller Sir Topham Hatt...and it didn't rain! Yay!
Here are a few photos of the day I thought I'd share with you...


The steam organ that was playing 2 Thomas theme tunes. ALL. DAY.

Jamie and Daddy - Jamie wasn't sure about the steam organ (it was VERY loud and kept making him jump!)

It really was a fun day, and I would recommend it if you have a Thomas fan in your house!

Thanks for looking!

What I've been up to!

Other than being engrossed in my Cath Kidston book, I mean......

I self drafted a new bag pattern - the Daydreamer! 

Ta-dah!

It was inspired by a friend of mine asking me to make her a deeper handbag for her to take on holiday - and this is what I came up with! I'm glad to say she was very happy with it.

And another bag.....this one for my little guy! He's been crazing me for ages to make him a bag - he keeps seeing me make all these others, bless him - so I decided now was the time. We're off to Colne Valley Railway's Day Out With Thomas on Saturday, so I decided it would be good for him to have a Thomas backpack to put his drink, snacks and goodies in while we are there.

I used the toddler backpack pattern from Indietutes which is fab! I downsized it a bit from the actual pdf as I think it would have been too big - but this size is perfect for him!

He liked it so much he sat clutching it all the way through lunch - and has been planning what to put in it all afternoon lol!

Beautiful Days......

are my favourite days!

We decided to take a little trip to our local shopping centre for some lunch, and then headed down to the Marina to see if we could see some ducks - but all we found was one moorhen and some plastic swans lol!

There's nothing I like more than spending time with my wonderful little man and my gorgeous Mr. B - my little family!
BTW, if anyone is wondering - the thing hanging on Jamie's belt loop is a superhero squad torch....obvious, really....rofl!

I hope your day was as glorious as ours, and thanks for looking!
